Product Information

Full details

This Albany wallpaper in a Teal blue colourway is ideal for homeowners looking to add a subtle yet stylish plaster effect to their interior walls. Its key benefit is its versatility, coordinating with many designs and offering an easy way to transform a space's atmosphere. A potential caveat is its free pattern match, which may require more careful planning during application compared to a straight match.

FAQs

What is a 'free pattern match'?

A free pattern match means you do not need to align the pattern exactly between vertical strips of wallpaper. This simplifies the hanging process and can reduce waste.

Can this wallpaper be used in a bathroom or kitchen?

While this wallpaper can be used in low-moisture areas like a hallway, it is not generally recommended for high-moisture environments such as bathrooms or kitchens where steam and condensation can affect its adhesion and finish.

How do I clean this wallpaper?

Use a soft, damp cloth to gently wipe the surface. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, as they can damage the material.

What type of paste should I use?

Use a good quality, general-purpose wallpaper paste suitable for standard paper wallpapers. Always follow the paste manufacturer's instructions.

Can I paint over this wallpaper?

This wallpaper is designed as a decorative finish itself and is not intended to be painted over. Painting could obscure the plaster effect and potentially damage the paper.

How durable is this wallpaper?

The durability depends on the quality of application and the environment. Properly applied, it offers a lasting decorative finish for interior walls.

Troubleshooting

Bubbles or wrinkles appearing after application

Gently lift the affected section and re-smooth with a wallpaper brush or roller, ensuring the paste is evenly distributed and air is expelled.

Wallpaper not adhering to the wall

Ensure the wall surface is properly prepared (clean, dry, and free from dust or grease) and that sufficient wallpaper paste has been applied evenly.

Pattern mismatch at seams (despite free match)

While designed for a free match, check that the strips are hung plumb (vertically straight) and that there isn't unintentional misalignment from handling. Minor adjustments can sometimes be made by carefully repositioning the strip before the paste sets.

Colour variation between strips

Ensure all wallpaper rolls used in the same area are from the same batch number to guarantee colour consistency.

Cons

  • May require careful handling during application to avoid damage.

  • Requires proper wall preparation for optimal adhesion.
  • Durability can depend on wall conditions and application quality.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Ensure walls are clean, dry, and smooth before application. Remove any old wallpaper or loose paint. Apply wallpaper paste evenly to the wall or the back of the paper according to the paste manufacturer's instructions. Hang strips with a free pattern match, smoothing out any air bubbles with a brush or roller.

Compatibility: This wallpaper is designed for interior walls. It is compatible with most standard wallpaper pastes. Ensure the wall surface is suitable for wallpapering.

Care: To clean, gently wipe with a damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or excessive moisture, as this can damage the plaster effect finish and the paper itself.
